Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

[Bajo_cero2]

For any other readers in the thread this methodology does not work anymore. The courts are coming out that if you do not continue to live in Argentina after starting your case, you will be rejected. Recent sentence below rejecting citizenship for an individual that had a baby, but then left because it was getting too expensive to live.

This is the first hierarchy decision and the deadline for the appeal is not even over. 2 of the 3 rooms of the Chamber of Appeals accepts to revoque sentences like this one of the applican shows up at Court.

From the courts perspective there is no difference in whether you're married to an Argentine citizen or if you have Argentine citizen children, they both give you the same privilege to start a court case immediately without waiting 2 years first.

The semantics of how to frame your absence from the country don't really matter, if you do not "live" in Argentina they'll just straight up deny your citizenship request, that's how it works nowadays. The permissible amount of temporary absence (vacations etc) is up to their discretion, but the more you're outside the country the higher your risk will be of a denial

It is not. Immigration law says clearly you are a tourist if you are here 180 days a year. If you stay more you are an inhabitant with the right to get citizenship. This is the 7/5 rule developed by Court 2 and the Sala III of the Chamber of Appeals that the other 2 does not recognize.

Can I ask what would be the advantages or more so the possible(financial) disadvantages of this over permanent residency? Tax implications for properties owned in another country etc.

Today the major advantage is to avoid conception at home country.

This is naked speculation based on zero facts. There is no requirement at all to maintain residency inside Argentina after citizenship has been obtained. Also, your insinuation that Naturalized Citizenship can simply be stripped away on a whim without a judicial process and notification is also blatantly untrue. The process of obtaining naturalization is itself a judicial process and the only way to reverse it is through another judicial process. All judicial processes in Argentina require a series of notifications sent by mail to the address that appears on a citizen/residents DNI. If someone has moved to an address other than the one on their DNI and not obtained a new DNI with updated address, and thus did not receive the notifications by mail, that's on them.

I suggest you google Notthebom leading case of the International Court of Justice.
There is in fact a procedure but they notify you at you former address and you never notice it. The story that was told is from a client of mine who got citizenship in 2000 by one of the fake sentences of Court 11. He moved to the UK with his 2 AR daughters and wife and came back for visiting his father and he is here since then (2021). We just won the case last week.

The important right that naturalized citizens are missing is the ability to pass citizenship down to children born abroad.

@bajo cero, any updates to this one, I heard there was a case in supreme court regarding the subject.

I'm sorry I don't follow what the conception of my child here to supposedly avoid the UK has to do with the decision of whether I should go from a permanent resident to citizenship?

He means to say conscription in your home country, many Russians came to Argentina because they were running away from army service and being sent to the frontlines.
